Hi Benjamin, thanks for your feedback.
The beginning is here:

    http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2002-02/msg00088.html

Personally, I believe Aaron is right in that the current hash function
implemented in do_hash is a little bit unusual. However, I'm not an hashing
expert...

What do you think?

Ciao, Paolo.
